Sweet Miss Coffy – Overflow lyrics

Fire starts in my mind
I see her for the first time.
Fire melts to ice
She looks at me
With clear blue eyes.

I try to talk but
I can't speak,
I try to run but
I'm so weak.
The way she is
Comes crashing down on me.

Broken and bruised
I am thrown back onto shore
I am flooding
And I want some more.

And knowing well that
I won't swim
I slip off my high shoes
And dive back in.

Do you know that
I am drowning in you?
And I will not stop,
Not for a breath.
Every moment with you
I won't lose,
And I won't stop
Till there's nothing left
Of me.

Don't throw me
A vest or floatie
Cuz I won't need one
Where I'm going.
Or toss me a
Safety line,
Cuz I'll be drowning
For all the time.

Do you know that
I am drowning in you?
And I will not stop,
Not for a breath.
Every moment with you
I won't lose,
And I won't stop
Till there's nothing left,
Just you.

So don't make me dream
Through this trial
Just say that I can have you all,
And you will fill me up,
Overflow this empty cup.

You will overflow
Sitting there lost and I'll watch you grow.
